President Trump Outlines Tougher US Stance Towards Iran

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

President Trump has threatened to end US participation in an international nuclear deal with Iran, but has stopped short of pulling out immediately, instead handing the issue to Congress. Jordan Fabian is White House Correspondent for The Hill and considers what is driving Mr Trump's policy reversal, and its consequences for Capitol Hill. BBC Correspondent Amit Paivar also gives the view from Tehran. Also in the programme, at least 30 women have accused film producer Harvey Weinstein of sexually assaulting them. Howard Mustoe reports from the London Film Festival on the impact Brexit could have on the British Film Industry. Fergus Nicholl is joined for comment on the programme by Clive Hunton of ABC, in Canberra. (Photo by Drew Angerer/Getty Images)
